Well, I guess this is where I find out exactly what I'm NOT willing to go through with a line. Until these are available to the average person through a non-scalper, non-eBay route, I'm not buying. I went NUTS for DCIH and tracked down darned-near every figure, and I'm not going through that again ever.

These look awesome, I'd love to buy them, but I'm not going to chase them all over the internet or line some reseller's pockets to get them.

Okay, maybe for a 4" Penguin, but that's it.

Constanza! Hahahaha. And does anyone else think it would be a great idea for them to start off by doing a playset (Oa, Batcave, Daily Planet) and then a group of figures with each playset? They obviously have GL going, but how about the Batcave with like 10 Batman figures and then moving on to Superman and his people? That would be hard for me to resist.

Right now I'm just worried about how I am going to get THIS set, let alone future figures. Especially if they are hoping they sell out at the Con. Aren't there any SDCC attendees here who are willing to help out!?!?!?

Good chance they will make the Green Lantern Oa playset on display here at SDCC for their 3.75" figures.

Actually, that's just Jay fabricating news for his site as usual...

Today at the show I spoke with Shawn Knapp, a designer with DC Collectibles. Shawn's a good guy. He said that he hopes to expand the 3 3/4" line, but for right now they can only be sold as convention exclusives. "We have to be respectful of Mattel" he said, and he did not elaborate. I wonder if this means that Mattel is thinking about getting back in the 3 3/4" game? And maybe doing it right this time? They should hire David Vonner if they're going to do that.

And he said they're talking about ways they can get the playset to market. As you may have guessed, they can't get it to "cost out" (You're going to hear that phrase a LOT these days, kids). If they put it out right now as it is it would cost over two hundred dollars. They're thinking about possibly releasing it in pieces, a little at a time or in resin like a statue.
